My guess is that steam puts online clients in ques for the patch to avoid slow DL speeds.

Ballotelli better have 20 Composure now and a proper stat boost, the most underrated player in the game. researches seem to take more to time judge the public image rather than the talent of a player. (I'm saying this and I dont like Man City)

Considering changing my "NO DIGITAL DOWNLOADS" stance in regards to games. Steam has it for £7.99 so might just take the plunge rather ordering from an online distributor and waiting, while probably paying more. I like to sell my games on ebay once finished with them but for £7.99, it's not really a problem.

Can you play steam games on multiple machines? I travel a lot and use a different laptop when out and about.

Yeah, as long as you sign in with the same account on every laptop (can't be signed in to two at the same time mind) it'll be fine - bear in mind you'll have to download and install for each machine.

You can't sell it anyway because it registers to your steam account and no one else can play it (unless you sell your account details as well which probably isn't legal).

Niel answered the question already but just to make it clear you will not be able to sell your copy of the game no matter how you buy it. Its a steam only game even if you buy a physical disk to install it off and steam dont allow selling accounts.

You wouldnt be able to sell FM12 on Ebay anyways as it HAS to be tied to a steam account even if you buy a boxed copy (well ok you would be able to sell it but the buyer would be pissed off when they couldnt activate it)

It's more a case of the researchers being careful not to hastily boost a player based on form (I'm not suggesting you are, btw - I'm a Mario fan too). If they judged players on public image they'd be changing attributes every weekend!

scout problem at Villa and other clubs been fixed?? Skimmed through the changelist but couldn't see anything. Anyone having issues with the new update as I have auto updates off until I see whether people are having problems so I don't get these but if Villa issue has been fixed I could well sacrifice these problems, if there are any!!

Well I guess. But I would put him in the top 5 calm keeping players there are. The way he just places his shots and finishes his chances are breathtaking at times. But I also see where the researches are coming from with the "not basing on form" thing

It downloaded now when I pick leagues to play in and ok I get the following message

Any help would be great thanks

Is this affecting any specific leagues or is it happening every time? Are you using any edited data files?

Either way if you could post your issue in the following forum it would be good then the right people will see it to be able to advise you:

Having the same problem. I'm not using any editor databases and I am selecting the English leagues.

Recent manager changes has been sorted but players like Diarra etc. are still without club.

Bosman transfers in the Bundesliga has been sorted, but not in Eredivisie.

Injuries - Vermaelen starts as injured while Frimpong does not. Frimpong's injury is added in the database but set as something/2012.

Mathieu Manset not out on loan at Shanghai Shenhua, while Arshavin is on loan at Zenit.

Arshavin's loan was never going to be included, believe the reasoning is on the Arsenal Data thread

RE diarra etc:

I’ve loaded the new database, but it seems some transfers aren’t in the game? Why were these missed?

Unfortunately as with everything eventually time just runs out. Some transfers (say the two players who ‘walked away’ from Rangers or Diarra to Fulham) just happened too late to be included in this update.

Also please remember that short-term and emergency loans are not included in the database. Examples of these are Kuszczak to Watford and Elokobi to Nottingham Forest; they are not included.

steven naismith at rangers is injured for the season but not in the game. how hard can it be to get that right?
EDIT Also mat Mckay has moved too some south korean team. nice work on the half done job this year SI. i've had the feeling yous hav not been too botherd this year from the day the game was released.

dang, i'm down with the typical 'steam servers are too busy : error code 55', i had that with the 12.1.1 patch too, it took 5 days before i could finally get going again :/. But i cant wait to get going again

Our big four are inconsistent with fielding first-team players. I did a quick test, on full detail in England. Chelsea played Man City. Man City won 8 nil because Chelsea didn't have a single first team player on the pitch. Happened pre-patch also with Man Utd versus QPR. QPR won 5 nil because like Chelsea, Man Utd didn't have a single first team player.

Nice update, but still no fix for players who are all the time tired after playing matches:-(, my players are always tired after playing a match, every month I have to send more as 4 players on holiday because they need a long rest, if I don't give them rest, they got injured for many months, nothing wrong with the trainingfacilities (medium) and I have 4.5 star coach on condition
